Nice fleet, although I still like the flatbed most - one of my
favourites in the same league with Log-Rover and Tet 8)

;D Wow, Pretty highly ranked with you then Jan!, I like it too,
and to think I bought it to break for parts!
Its been given some pretty hard work over the past week,
shifting bales into the barn, spending most of its time in low
range lugging a hot air balloon trailer loaded with alfalfa
bales.

It was 38 degrees when shifting them bales in, only mad dogs and
English men work in the midday heat :toothless:
Cheers, Jack.

Used the little trayback today, Started with a tickle of the
starter knob and a sniff of choke. I was delivering a good 20
something bales to a horsey stable up the road a bit, I stopped
to open a gate, put the hand brake on, And then once back in the
cab I tried to set off with the hand brake engaged. Now it did
what you would expect, for a split second, the revs dropped, but
then I let the clutch out even more, I'd expect it to
stall....it didn't, the opposite happened, the revs came up a
fair bit and the clutch pedal felt a bit soft. I took the
handbrake off at about this time and it grabbed sharply and took
up drive.
But now the grabby juddery clutch is back, every time I set off
from a stand still.
I'll check the hydraulics, I know the slave cylinder is past its
best and leaks a bit. And I'll also check the cross shaft,
Checking the bronze bushing and the cross shaft pins.
I really don't want to be removing the engine. But its starting
to look like it might have to come out for a clutch re-vamp.

Got pissed off with an overgrown christmas tree and decided to
show it whose boss. The tray back got a work out carrying
branches and logs about.

Could still do with checking the clutch hydraulics and linkages,
but it still works of a fashion and driveable.
